THREE REFLECTIONS
On the Inspector System-Notes
on 'Chanre.

on Change.
The influential members of the cham
Der were overheard talking yesterday
Oh the greatly-debated question of wheat
inspection. Said Mr.. Sawyer:
In my opinion, changing these inspectors
is a great mistake. An inspector schOoled to
know hard wheat knows that and nothing
about soft wheat. would make demand
on the proper authorities that this matter be
looked into and the changing around order
rescinded.
T.. ID. Mulford--That would do no good. be-
cause this chamber, despite its Importance
in the community, has been Systematically
ignored by the state authorities, because they
are politicians. and nothing more.
George ii. Christian differ entirely on
this matter, Changing these fellows is all
right, believe they are open TO bribery, and
il would become pretty expensive to bride
them when they will be continually changed
around. Therefore let them move about and
thoroughly learn their business in all its ms
and outs.
These three conversations exactly show the
way this question is looked al on the floor.
Mr.. Bassett, of McGregor, To-, most pop
ular grain man. arrived in town yesterday
and made a heightened call on change.
The speculative market remains in an I'M
settled state. Now running up shade only
all the morning. but al the close it weakened
slightly.
Mr.. Weston, with j. B. A. Kerns & Co.,
the largest -four mill people in Milwaukee,
has been i'll town for few days on business,
and makes the chamber his headquarters.
In the matter OF this wheat inspection one
thing that hurts the chamber of commerce es-
pecially is the suspicion that these state in
spections favor Duluth a good deal, to the
detriment of Minneapolis interests.

ALL SORTS.

1t is hardly probable that E. b Haskell will
remove to Minneapolis. but in that case i'm
agine the position of Brother Blethen, ground
between the upper aud the neither mill
stone.
Messrs. C. NJ. Foote, W. ". Sly and Fred
c. Barrows will compose party to take in
Washington this winter. Col. Foote is a
Democrat, and Sly and Borrows are the tim
Der Of which good Democrats are made, but
as yet they are Republicans.
A reporter for morning paper knows
news when he sees it. Yesterday he was dis
covered busily engaged in copying the no
tees of chattel mortgage sales posted at the
court house.
These. stories of the dissolution Of the
Young Mems Democratic club of the First
ward are very funny, and the Republican
papers seem 10 enjoy them, but they lack the
essential element of TRUTH The club is i'll
good shape numerically and financially, and
the public will so find in the next campaign.
The Elks intend that w. E. Sterling shall
receive a practical demonstration of the
meaning of "brotherly love-" and will attend
the opening of the Peoples theater Monday
evening in body.
From the cruel and uncalled-for remarks
of the Star News. it is clear TO be seen that at
least one editor is sore because couple of
aldermen are to get free railroad ride at
the expense of the city.
Maj. r, r. Henderson's services in behalf
of The G. A. II. are evidently appreciated,
and his appointment as senior aide de-camp
in staff of Commander-in-chief Rea is a rec
ognition to which he is justly entitled.
Dan Murphy, a popular Fargolte, was IN
the city yesterday inspecting the system of

That Pleasing Chestnut.

A gentleman who has been an extern
sive traveller. speaking to a GLOBE re-
porter yesterday afternoon in the Mic
Ollet house rotunda Oh the subject of
climatic influences. said that Minneapo-
lis was much abused place in the win
ter. He had been in New Orleans in
January when the weather was far more
disagreeable and liable to breed sickness
than the dry healthy air of this country.
In Denver when it was so light
that it induced heart trouble and
gave person almost a choking sensa-
ton: in the towns of the Eastern sea-
board, where it was a succession of fogs,
slush and thaws, and lin the spring of
Duluth, there was the sum total of evil
as far as weather was concerned. Given
lots of work and plenty of warm, sub
stantial clothing, Minneapolis was as
fine. dry and healthful a climate as any
one need desire. He had spent six win
tiers here and he trusted to spend MANY
more. AS for the beautiful transition
of winter into summer here, in one sud
den, glorious burst, to fully feel its
beauty. one should read the account of
it given in Longfellow's '.Hiawatha.''

INCIDENTS OF THE CITY.
1t Broke the Audience Up.

At the Grand yesterday afternoon,
while Modjeska was playing "Donna
Diana," was scene not down in the
drama. Diana was piqued at the cold
ness with which her lover viewed her
charms. and she determined to conquer
him. He was led by the servant into
the garden where he could hear the
sweet music she produced on a harp.
Gracefully she twanged the strings
while violinlst in the orchestra picked
his instrument and made the
music. Presently she lost the
time and got TO laughing, in
the course of which she leaned on the
harp and her shoulders fairly shook, but
the violinist went steadily on. 1t broke
everybody up and the audience roared.
MOdieska soon recovered and went on
with the play. The servant entered and
reported the utter insensibility of the
lover. Diana was nonplussed. lis he
still so cold? Did he hear my music?"
AS she said this it was impossible to
keep the twinkle out of her eye. 1t was
supremacy ridiculous, and the audience
went off into another peal of hearty
laughter.

CONVERSATIONAL SCRAPS.

Aid. Mills-The city engineer, Super
visor Matt Walsh and myself expect to
start early next week on our trip of in
spection of the water-works systems of
Cleveland, Boston, Philadelphia and
some other towns not yet decided on.
This will be strictly a business tour.
There is no junketing about it, and the
money we shall have will about see us
through and no more. A few big fires
during the winter, as matters are now,
and the city would be in peril, so it is
proper to take all precautions as soon as
possible, before the winter sets in in
earnest.
John Brushaber-The Young Mems Demc
cratic club of the Third ward is the liveIl-
est corpse you ever saw. We have money in
the bank.
W. F. Sterling-We can erect only tenn
porary front to the Peoples theater this fall,
but it will be slightly one. In the spring
five-story block will be the front.
W. II. Dennis-Yes, people laugh at the
brick in the johnson block. but wait until it
is complete and you won't find man but
will agree it is the handsomest in the city.

He Is Responsible Only to Private

Smith.
Under the legal turn given it by City
Attorney Smith, the case of B. l.. Sykes,
foreman of the East side tunnel, who
was convicted before the council, at
least. of appropriating city sand and
material and city employees time, takes
on Il new aspect. In the language of the
street, that's different" The council
committee gave the matter thorough
investigation and recommended erin.
inal prosecution. but the city attorney,
when the case was laid before him, said:
was not present at the meeting of The
committee last week when the Sykes inveSti-
CATION was concluded. and SO do not know
exactly what was done. AS / understood the
matter however, 1t was determined TO prose-
cute Mr.. Sykes, and subcommittee was ap
pointed for that purpose. This committee
sought my advice in the matter and | told
them that it was not the duty of the city at
torney 10 prosecute criminal eases for the
city, except such as came up in the munich
pal court. In cases involving large amount
of money, as this does, ii is the duty of the
county attorney to prosecute. At the same
time l told them that in any case the city had
no right to bring the prosecution. because the
supreme court had decided that all the dirt
or stone removed from the streets by the
city, unless it be used in grading or for some
other public purpose, belongs TO the persons
who own the property fronting upon the
street. Furthermore, have been informed
that Sykes paid over TO the assistant city en-
gineer the amount that il is claimed he stole
as soon as he learned that an investigation
was in progress. My advice to the committee
was TO get this money for the dirt, then make
their peace with the property owners before
they carried the prosecution any farther. Al
though the committee cannot make a com
plant in behalf of the city, understand that
now they intend to carry the matter forward
as private citizens.
1t is also developed that Sykes turned
$50 over to VanduZen, the sewer super
intendent, though that fact did not
tranSpire at the meeting. This part of
it strengthens what the GLOBE said at
the time, namely, that it was singular
the engineering department did not
sooner learn of the alleged crooked
work. 1t was shown before the COM
mittee that Sykes got about $500 worth
of material, but it now appears he is
answerable only to private citizens for
this. He is at work on contract at st.
Cloud. but it is said he has retained an
able Minneapolis attorney, and by his
advice will not talk of the matter.
